Phones across Durham lit up with a call for action: local unions and community groups are demanding Duke University pay its workers at least $25 an hour and contribute more to the city. This comes as Duke faces criticism for recent job cuts and for not paying property taxes like other big universities. In response, Duke Health sent managers a memo with talking points, emphasizing their investments in staff and recent wage increases. But many in Durham feel the university could do more for the people who keep it running. How do you think Duke should balance its financial priorities with community needs? #Education #Durham #DukeUniversity
